This product creates 2 wills: one for each person in a marriage or registered civil partnership.

The wills are set up so that when the first person in the couple dies, everything is left to the survivor. You use these wills to decide what should happen after both of you have died. Your choices are the same in both wills, meaning they'll apply regardless of who dies first.

Together, you can:

• Divide up the bulk of what you both own (the residuary estate), including the option to each set up a trust
• Make gifts of money or particular items
• Make a gift of all of your personal possessions
• Make back-up choices in case either of you outlive your first-choice recipients
• Require recipients to reach a particular age before inheriting
• Leave money to help look after pets.

You can also choose:

• Executors (the people who'll carry out the wishes in your wills)
• Someone to handle your digital assets (e.g. photos, social media)
• Preferred guardians for your children (if you both die before they become adults).

Don't use these wills if any of the following apply:

• Either or both of you aren't domiciled in the UK (i.e. it's not your permanent home).
• You aren't both domiciled in the same part of the UK.
• Either or both of you have children from previous relationships who've not been treated as children of the family (e.g. they've never lived with both of you).

Note: in Scotland, your children have a right to a share of your estate. When the first one of you dies, any children you have could exercise that right and stop everything from going to your surviving spouse/civil partner. If you’re concerned about this possibility, use individual wills instead.
